The 2,2-difluoroethyl group is an important lipophilic hydrogen bond donor in medicinal chemistry, but its incorporation into small molecules is often challenging. Herein, we demonstrate electrophilic 2,2-difluoroethylation of thiol, amine and alcoho... Read More about 2,2‐Difluoroethylation of Heteroatom Nucleophiles via a Hypervalent Iodine Strategy.
